I'm hesitant to add this to https://www.bngal.com https://www.bngal.com because it seems like there could be usability issues if you need to capture other information on a single checkout form (email address, shipping address, shipping method, etc.).
It seems like a customer would do the following:
- Fill out all data except billing info
- Click the "Pay with Card" button
- Overlay comes up, they enter billing info, then click "Pay $X"
- Overlay closes, token is passed back to form, form is automatically submitted via JS
The proof is in testing and data of course, but my gut tells me people prefer just a single form and button. That's why I like the original checkout method.
The mobile part is great BTW.
- nicoritschel 14y agoCollecting addresses is as simple as adding a parameter: https://stripe.com/docs/checkout https://stripe.com/docs/checkout
- gregsadetsky 14y agoAlthough it is possible to collect the customer's billing address (using the 'address' option) using the Checkout form, it isn't (yet?) possible to add other, arbitrary fields. For instance, collecting an email address would have to be done elsewhere.
- jh3 14y agoNot having the ability to add an email address field to the checkout form is a real deal breaker for me. I wonder why they did not implement an optional email field.
